Imagining Childhood by Erika Langmuir
Demonstrates that no historic period has a monopoly on the 'discovery of childhood'. This book illustrates not only Western society's perennially ambivalent attitudes to children, but also the many and varied functions that works of art have played throughout its history.
Erika Langmuir was formerly head of education at the National Gallery, London; she taught at the University of Sussex and was professor of art history at the Open University. She is the author of the National Gallery Companion Guide and several titles from the best-selling National Gallery Pocket Guides series, as well as co-author of the Yale Dictionary of Art and Artists, all published by Yale University Press.
